Professor Shikma Bressler, a prominent figure in the "Black Flags" protest movement and advocate for the release of hostages, has issued a strong public appeal to opposition party leaders. Bressler urged them to immediately form an alternative government and replace Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's administration, which she accused of abandoning national interests.
In a sharp post on social media platform X, Bressler stated, "For Netanyahu, as Sarah said, let the country burn. There's no need to think twice." She warned that the current government poses a significant threat to the nation's existence and called for urgent action from the opposition.
Bressler, a physicist at the Weizmann Institute of Science, has become a vocal critic of the government's policies through her involvement in protests against the judicial overhaul and for the release of hostages. She has also been active with other protest groups like "Brothers in Arms."
Separately, Bressler is facing a potential defamation lawsuit from attorney Kineret Brashi. Brashi announced her intention to sue after Bressler resharing a screenshot of a WhatsApp conversation from 2023, which had previously been identified as a forgery and attributed to the late right-wing activist Orly Lev. Brashi stated that Bressler's reposting of the fabricated message, despite knowing it was false, would preclude any claim of good faith in a legal defense.
